Radio New Zealand has a documentary on Sunday mornings (8:05 a.m.) called “Insight”, which discusses New Zealand issues. Next Sunday (9 July) the topic will be the impact of the filming of LOTR on the NZ economy.
Xoanon Note: Any intrepid fan who could get me a tape of that show will be forever on my x-mas card list. 🙂
Update: Never before has it been so easy to win Xoanon’s love and get on his X-mas card list. You can purchase copies of on air material at Radio NZ in their Replay Radio section. We will likely have more indepth coverage of what aired early next week, so you may want to hold onto your pocketbooks until then. (Corvar)
